Quick adjust Castor/Camber

Finally got round 2 fitting my new top wishbones 2 my roadster.Now I can adjust camber without keep undoing the drag link and adjust the caster in about 10 minutes. Had a blast over the tops this
aft felt like a different car.Well worth the effort.

Adjustable castor can be achieved by fitting rosejoints instead of PU bushes.

I know how it can be done. I was just asking the OP how he had done it in case he had come up with something novel.

All Ive done is made the top suspension
brackets 10mm wider,and put 2mm spacers 2 make up the difference.By repositioning the spacers you can set the castor.
